After the tragic and unexpected death of nurse Jacintha Saldanha, the nurse who took her own life after a radio call prank to the room of Duchess of Cambridge; her husband Benedict Barboza is inconsolably devastated and angry.
Jacintha Saldanha, a 46 year old nurse from India was found dead last Friday after receiving a prank call from Australian DJs, Mel Greig and Michael Christian.
Saldanha being a family woman leaves behind a daughter; 14 year old Lisha, a son; 16 year old Junal and her husband; 49 year old Benedict Barboza.
Now when we talk about this kind of subtle subjects, the situation requires a more serious tone and when referring to Saldanha’s family the tone is as respectful and serious as we can get.
Mr. Barboza’s reaction is to be expected in my opinion, he just lost his beloved wife and partner in a very shocking way and apparently at the expense of a joke! This is no accident people, actions have coincidences and is always sad when a life of a sweet and caring human being is lost, and if it is shocking for us spectators I can simply not imagine how the closest ones to her can feel.
Barboza was also critical of hospital chiefs for their handling of the incident last week:
“He feels very angry about the hospital management. He’s been full of stress about the whole thing. It’s not a very nice time.”
But we have to agree to disagree! There are some loose ends because the hospital stated it did not discipline Saldanha over the grievous incident and not even the royal family (who they were the main affected) presented any complaints; so what could have been that triggered Jacintha to take that fatal determination?
The awnwer came from the nurses’ brother Naveen; he believed that his sister was likely “devastated” over having publicly betrayed the privacy of the Duchess of Cambridge. He continued:
“She would have felt much shame about the incident …
His words show she was a proper and righteous person..just the kind of people we need in this world!
Barboza devastated said she would be berried in Shirva, the town in southern India where she was born. Police investigating her death have described it as unexplained. We sure send our best wishes to all of her family and hope all this can soon be clarified.
